]]>With the holiday season fast approaching, there are no doubt a number of different things that you need to get done around the house to prepare for everything the upcoming season holds. Whether you have to make the house ready to host guests, visiting relatives, or you and your family just take holiday decorating very seriously, there likely isn’t much more room on your to-do list for the coming months, but if you haven’t scheduled an electrical safety inspection for your home, it might be in your best interest to find the time needed to squeeze one in. Taking the time to have an electrical safety inspection performed on your home might be one of the most important things you do this holiday season, and it can go a long way towards giving you and your family peace of mind in knowing that your home is well protected over the coming months. While electrical fires and system overloads can happen at just about any point in the year, they are especially common during the holiday season when many homeowners are running their heating systems and furnaces, stringing up festive lighting, or utilizing their entire kitchen to prepare a feast for friends and family. There are a number of different electrical components in general that require some special attention during the holiday season, and during the course of your electrical safety inspection, we can ensure they continue to function safely and efficiently over the coming months. Some of these components include:

Smoke Detectors

More house fires occur between the months of December and February than any other time of the year, and as such, it is important to make sure that your home’s smoke detectors have fresh batteries and are working correctly. Between constantly running your heating, any kind of decorations that you might have plugged in, and all of the use your kitchen is going to be seeing, your electrical system is likely going to be getting pushed to its limit, and if something were to go wrong and a fire should start, you want to make sure that you and your family get the ample warning you need to get to safety as quickly as possible. During the course of your electrical safety inspection, not only will we ensure that your smoke detectors are placed correctly throughout your home, but we will also test each one to ensure they are functioning correctly.

Outdoor GFCI Outlets

If you are one of the many homeowners who loves to decorate the outside of your home with festive lighting and other lawn decorations, it is important to make sure that the exterior of your home is equipped with GFCI outlets, and that they are all in safe working order. Here in Florida, the winters can get pretty wet sometimes, and if your holiday lighting isn’t safely plugged into a GFCI outlet, there is a serious possibility that any exposure to water could cause some serious problems. Getting an electrical safety inspection will ensure that all of your outdoor outlets are working like they should be, and your inspector will be able to make any upgrades that are necessary if you don’t already have GFCI outlets in place.

Safety & Security Lighting

The holiday season is a busy time of year for just about everyone, including burglars. The holiday season is an extremely popular time of year for burglars, as they suspect that many homes are going to be in possession of brand new, high cost items like televisions, gaming systems, computers, and the like. In addition, there are many homeowners who choose to take extended vacations now while the kids are out of school, and if your home is going to be empty for any length of time, it could present a very appealing target for potential criminals. Having new security lighting installed around your home, or making sure that your existing lighting is working properly can go a long way towards warding off any would be intruders and convince them that their luck might be better at another house where they don’t run the risk of being spotted or identified. Most criminals would prefer an easy target where they don’t run the risk of being caught, and with properly functioning security lighting, you can help make your home a much less tempting target this holiday season.

]]>From a bright light to a soft glow, you can install recessed lighting anywhere in your Lake Buena Vista home. Recessed lights are often installed in the kitchen, above the entertainment area, or positioned to highlight favorite artwork pieces.

Perhaps you have a favorite art piece that you would like to highlight. With recessed lights focused on the art work, the eye will be drawn right to it. Install recessed lights in the kitchen to provide extra light for safety. Or if you’ve had new countertops installed in your home, use recessed lights to highlight that new granite countertop you are so proud of!

Recessed lighting is also often used outdoors. They are perfect for a covered patio area, around the edges of a deck, and along outdoor steps. Think about the front of your home. You can install recessed lights near the front door for extra illumination. If you have a nice entryway, why not highlight it even further with a few well-placed lights?

Since recessed lights have a low profile, they can actually go just about anywhere. There are different types of recessed lights for both indoor and outdoor use. Here’s are some tips and ideas for recessed lighting installations.

Recessed Lights Can Save You Money

It is a no-brainer that you will save money if you turn the lights off. However, many times we want to be able to just turn it down a little.

Recessed lights can save energy because they can be adjustable. Turn them up or down based on where you want the most illumination in your home. If you install lower voltage bulbs or adjust the strength with a dimmer switch, you will save energy. Also, the type of light bulb you choose will affect your energy bill. Use soft, low voltage, or even LED bulbs.

Install Recessed Lighting To Create Ambiance

Recessed lighting can also help you create ambiance in certain areas of your home. Try a UV (Ultra-Violet or Purple light) in your child’s or teenager’s room. Or if you put them along the sides of a beautiful chandelier in your formal dining room, you can create a peaceful and beautiful place for your family gatherings.

Installing lights that are specifically manufactured to accentuate mood is just one of the flexible features that recessed lights provide. They also help to enhance the design of your home, whether it’s indoors or outdoors.

Install Recessed Lighting For Visual Balance

Recessed lights can be set to face multiple directions. You can achieve a soft evening glow or place low voltage bulbs in areas where you have other lighting installed. Bright white bulbs provide the sufficient lighting you need in work areas and cover a larger area more efficiently.

Used in combination with another lighting type, recessed lighting can provide you with a delightful visual balance. Place a brighter bulb with more voltage in your kitchen area and above your breakfast bar area. This can help you see better when preparing and serving meals.

Recessed Lighting Dimmer Switches & Remote Control

By installing a wireless dimmer switch, recessed lighting becomes even more adjustable. There are all types of dimmer switches available today in different styles. You can choose to install a wireless switch that can be operated with a handheld remote. Why not get something really useful when you have your recessed lights installed?

Being able to turn down the lights remotely is one way to upgrade your quality of life. If the technology is there and it’s reasonably priced, there’s no reason not to consider it!

]]>You may not think much about whether you will have electricity to use on any given day. But the fact is that the electrical power to your home can go out at any time. Think about food spoiling, heating, lights, and the other things that are actually necessities today. Will you be prepared during a power outage that lasts longer than a few hours? The risk of this happening is very real no matter where you live but even greater in coastal regions like Orlando.

Whether it’s the result of severe weather or an increasingly unstable and overburdened electrical grid, power outages are inconvenient, to say the least. But they can also be costly and potentially dangerous, and even fatal if you rely on medical equipment. Automatic backup generators installed into your Orlando’s home’s electrical system will provide the ideal solution. This gives you the means to have safe, reliable, automatic power so you can live your life as usual during outages.

Sizing The Generator To Install

Automatic generators come in a wide range of sizes all the way from extremely powerful commercial and industrial generators down to small systems that only provide enough power for lights, kitchen appliances, and outlets. Even the smallest automatic generator is much better than a portable generator that has to be constantly refueled and turned on manually. Plus, they are also much quieter to the point where you won’t even know some models are actually running.

Your Orlando electrician will help you choose the right sized generator based on your needs and will then install it for you. You’ll have advice about the different makes and models you can choose so you have just what you need during a blackout.

Reliable Performance

Automatic Transitioning To Backup Power

Quiet Operation

Quick Response Time To Turn On

Installing An Automatic Generator

If your generator uses propane fuel, it will typically have either one or two 100-gallon storage tanks involved for the installation, so there needs to be space for the tanks too. Generally, a generator can be installed near the electrical service to the house in a 5′ x 3′ area which is 2.5 feet tall, but it depends.

When looking for the right location for the generator, it needs to be installed on flat ground near the electrical panel. It should also be in an area where the exhaust will not leach into the home, preferably where the wind will carry it away. They have to be at least five feet from any type of opening including doors, windows, and soffit vents. They can’t be installed within 3 feet of a wall or flammable materials, anywhere under an awning or overhang, breezeway, recesses blocked by shrubbery or trees. Generators shouldn’t be installed near traffic, pets, or people.

]]>The invention of the assembly line brought about an industrial revolution which shaped how products and goods were manufactured. Commercial automation has rapidly developed since then. Now, you see robots handling major portions of the assembly process.

The home automation industry is sure to follow a similar path of growth and development. Though ideas and inventions for home automation have been around for some time, the cost to make them was too high for the products to enter the consumer market. We have only just begun to see new technologies enter the market for home automation.

One of the first real examples of home automation products is the robotic vacuum cleaner. Dyson built a robot vacuum and demonstrated it in 2001, but it didn’t get released to the market because the price was too high. The Roomba® went on the market in 2002. Since then, there have been a number of smart home automation products released to the consumer market.

The revolution in smart home technologies is just beginning. With the invention of 3-D printing, it’s easy to dream of the day when we order up anything we want from our home “Replicator” -just like the one in the popular TV series Star Trek.

Today, you can find all types of cool technologies available. Many homeowners are opting for home automation during electrical remodeling. As Orlando electricians who specialize in electrical remodeling, Solaris Technology helps homeowners to upgrade their electrical systems with these new technologies every day. If you are interested in electrical remodeling in Orlando, here are some examples of trending home automation technologies we can install for you.

Trending Home Automation Technologies

Some say that necessity is the mother of invention. However, if you think about it, one could just as easily say that laziness is often the mother of invention. After all -what’s better than being able to turn off lights, close the shades, and flip on your favorite movie without having to get up off the sofa?

Today’s automated home systems are easy to control over a smartphone, handheld remote, or over the internet. Here are a few trending home automation systems.

Installing Home Automation Systems

A licensed electrician can install home automation systems. Not all electricians keep up with new technologies. You’ll want to be sure you choose one who does so you get the best advice about what to install in order to achieve your goals.

Solaris Technology is an Orlando electrician who can help you with all types of electrical installations and upgrades. If you want to automate your home in Orange County, Osceola County, Seminole County, or Lake County, give us a call.

]]>If you own or manage residential rental properties in Edgewood, Florida, it’s important for you to have electrical inspections done for all your properties so you can ensure the safety of your tenants. Renting out homes can be a big project, especially if you’re dealing with several at the same time. Making sure the property is in good, safe condition for your potential or current tenants is just a part of being the owner or designated representative of the property.

When renting homes, the homes are normally not brand new homes, which means they likely have an electrical system that’s been in place for some years. Electrical systems may seem like they’re an out of sight, out of mind system that should work no matter what, but nothing could be worse than to ignore or neglect to inspect the electrical wiring, panel, breakers, connections and other components that make up the electrical system of the home.

You may have just purchased the home or you may have had it for some time. Either way, having an annual electrical inspection or an inspection prior to the tenants moving is something that should be on your plans to do for your tenants. It’s an inexpensive service that’s highly beneficial to you and to your tenants.

Electrical inspections in Edgewood uncover problems with the electrical system before they make things worse. Letting those issues go can only cause more extensive problems or even fire or electrical shock. Even one loose wire in an outlet can cause catastrophic damages or death.

Aging Edgewood Homes Electrical Inspections

In Edgewood, older homes should have an electrical inspection done. There are always going to be hidden problems and/or visible problems with older homes because building safety codes change and electrical wiring systems get upgraded to be more safe. Your panel box, for instance, is probably outdated right now. If your panel box or your wiring is out of code and out of date, you need to have it replaced or the home simply isn’t safe.

Many people go for years trying to not have to replace the wiring. If you’re a new owner of the property, it’s likely the previous owner hasn’t had electrical work recently done. And even if the property was inspected by an inspector when you purchased the home, the home inspection isn’t as thorough as the electrical inspections are and if the inspector was hired by the seller you may not have been represented well with their findings.

Having your own electrical inspection done will be the only way to ensure you’re electrical system is working properly and is as safe as it should be. An electrical inspection should be done by a professional certified electrical inspector with years in the Edgewood electrical repair industry.

Improper electrical repairs or alterations

Deterioration due to aging

Faulty parts

Your electrical system could have been damaged by any number of things, even just normal wear and tear. Be sure to have the home’s electrical system inspected and any upgrades or repairs done, so you’ll not have to worry about how safe your Edgewood tenants are.

Sometimes life will throw you a curve ball when it comes to your home’s electrical system. When it does, you need to take action and fast. Leaving a problem ignored will only continue to make it worse. You will need the assistance of a licensed Winter Park electrical contractor.

It’s important to hire someone that has been professionally trained and keeps up with continuing education. There are many in one given area. The best way to hire one is by inquiring about the following items of interest:

Pulling permits

Continuing education

Specialization

Who is doing the work

Warranties

Many electrical companies in Winter Park also conduct electrical safety inspections. These are inspections to ensure that your electrical system is up to date and working properly. If any repairs are needed, they will discuss them in advance with you.
The types of repairs that an electrician does varies. For the most part, an electrician will do any type of residential or commercial work. This may include any of the following:

Panel upgrades

Wiring

Lighting

Ceiling fan repair

Specialized electricians are a bit different. These types of techs do specialized work. This is why it’s vital for a homeowner to hire the right contractor. You wouldn’t hire an electrician to do home wiring when they ‘specialize’ in commercial wiring.

You should also hire one based on experience. Experience goes a long way in the electrical world. Ones with experience have the skills and equipment to get work done on time and within budget.
Needless to say, hiring the right electrician is important. Hiring one that’s professionally trained, licensed, and insured will ensure that your home’s electrical components and system are working properly.

Electricians are great at what they do because they have been educated. You can’t practice the trade unless you’ve been trained. Many can take on jobs that allow them to show off their skills.

Also, they are able to handle high dosages of current. They know how to handle it without getting zapped, injured, or hurt badly. An electrician can protect your family from getting hurt through repairs.

Whatever you do, don’t try and do an electrical related job yourself. This could lead to your demise. And without the necessary tools, you probably wouldn’t have a clue as to what you were doing in the first place.

If you need help with an electrical related project or repairs, call the Winter Park electrical contractor at Solaris Technology Inc. Electrical Contractor. They’re the techs that can take care of all your electrical problems.

If you are looking for a licensed electrical contractor in Winter Park then please call 407-674-5770 or complete our online request form.

]]> There are certain things that can spark a house fire. The wiring inside of your ceiling and walls connected to your lighting is one of those things. Winter Park electrical remodeling experts can change the way your wiring is for better connection to your lighting.

There’s a lots of little things that you can do in order to prevent electrical house fires. If you smell burning wires, for instance, you should go and shut off the lighting through your panel box and call the fire company to check your wiring.

Never leave your lights on no matter how long you plan on staying gone from the home. Some wiring is so old that it heats up quickly and sparks. This can erupt into a fire. Call in your local electrician to have an electrical safety inspection done.

Unplug all lighting that is plugged into your electrical outlets before going to bed or work. An electrical surge can happen in the middle of the night and increase your chances of a house fire even more.

Winter Park homes that have older lighting should be checked. Remodeling the home’s electrical appliances, components, and electrical system are vital to the longevity and the safety of them all.

Your current lighting can easily be replaced with new lighting that’s more efficient and safer. Much of today’s lighting fixtures come with a guarantee. There’s great options such as indoor ceiling and track lighting among others that can make your home brighter for less.

Your outdoor lighting too runs off of electricity. There’s no reason that it too should not remain safe. Electrical safety inspections are around for this and other sole factors. Damaged lamp cords are hazards that can spark house fires.

Emergencies occur in the home where the lights go out for long term. These can be caused by lighting power outages and other contributing factors. Some people turn to kerosene when their lights go out which is never a safer thing.

You’ll find that the cost to light a room can be very cheap depending on how long you leave the lamps or lighting on and the types of bulbs in them. LED bulbs are widely used these days as they don’t get as hot as conventional ones do.

Contact Solaris Technology where you can have safe and effective Winter Park electrical remodeling done at your own convenience. They have over 15 years of experience to offer their Florida customers.

]]>You spend a considerable amount of time and effort perfecting your landscaping. It is the first thing that guests observe when they arrive to your home. Your landscaping is a reflection of your own personal taste and style, so it’s essential that every single detail is exactly the way you want it. This includes the flowers, the walkways, fountains, and other items that form a beauitful match to your home and lawn.

This is why selecting the appropriate lighting for your landscaping is essential. With unlimited choices for lighting on your home’s property, you can be as creative as you desire. As you consider what type of lighting and home much lighting you’ll need, read some of our helpful suggestions below, and then contact a Solaris Technology contractor today to help you pick out and install your landscape lighting today.

Lighting Function – The most important question you’ll ask yourself is what you are using the landscape lighting for . There are essentially two important uses for lighting: Style and safety. The right lighting can take care of both of these at the same time. So you need to know exactly what your vision is and what the lights will be utilized for. Evaluate your lawn’s needs. This will help both your purchasing and installation to go much more smoothly once you contact us.

Light Placement – When it comes to lighting, strategic placement is everything. As you’re piecing together your strategy, think about where you want the lights to be installed and also what direction your lights will be installed. Different systems have different types of lighting. Some lighting discharges targeted rays in an isolated area. Other lighting spreads out a wide diameter which lights up a much larger area all around your yard. If your installing lighting for safety then make sure the lighting concentrates on areas that you want lit up.

Style – Once you have a vision carved out for your lighting, now it’s time to get down to the details. For instance, are there specified items in your landscaping that you want to be featured? Do you wish for certain types of lights to run as a pattern through your flowerbed? Are you thinking about any specific colors? There are several factors involved. Do your homework and research other designs before you make your own selection.

Energy Use– Decorative lights can use up a lot of electricity in your home. With so many different types of lights to choose from, it is important to select lights that are energy efficient, and durable. Energy efficient lights are generally more expensive that regular light bulbs, but they save you more money in the long run.

It is hard to imagine any everyday task that your family conducts that does not involve electricity in some form or fashion. A reliable and efficient residential electrical system is an absolute necessity. As such, electricity is recognized as a ubiquitous convenience, but other than that it is taken for granted. This mentality is dangerous in that Orlando residents need to remember that, although electrical systems are everywhere, electricity is an extremely powerful force that must be treated with respect.

Safety is by far the most important aspect of your Orlando residential electrical system. The most effective way of promoting the safe-functionality of your residential electrical system is to develop a relationship with an experienced and licensed electrician.

Orlando Electrical Safety Tips

There are many key warning signs that there may be an safety issue with your Orlando electrical system. Three common examples include blown fuses, dimming lights, and shocks and tingles. If any of the problems occur, you should call the professional electricians at Solaris Technology Inc Electrical Contractor immediately.

As to blown fuses, as any homeowner knows, fuses blow on occasion, and as such, when they do, it is not the worst case scenario. It is important, however, to know how to replace a fuse. If you do not know how to replace a fuse, you should call an electrician. Secondly, if the same fuse blows consistently and more often than normal, there may be a problem with your wiring.

Another indication that there may be a problem with your wiring is consistently dimming lights. Your Orlando interior lights can dim or flicker when other major energy uses are occurring on the same circuit. However, if the same lights consistently underperform, there could be a significant safety issue.

If any member of your family feels a minor shock or tingle when touching an appliance or metal surface, it is absolutely imperative to call the electrical safety team at Solaris Technology Inc Electrical Contractor. These shocks are indicative of an electricity leak, which can become more dangerous if left unrepaired.

The most important safety protocol that Orlando homeowners should follow is this: never conduct electrical system augmentation or repair yourself. If you are renovating or repairing your Orlando electrical system, it is essential that you call a professionally licensed electrician. The electrical safety experts at Solaris Technology Inc Electrical Contractor are always here to help.
